The RNC will never let her get that close to the Presidency again. She will have to run as a third party candidate for the tea baggers.

Split the Republican vote between the teabaggers and the moderates. Love it.

she has no intention of doing anything that may cost money or entail effort. She merely wants to collect cash.

She is laughing all the way to the bank right now.

But it's true comedians want her to run because she gives them so much material.

Think of the carnage during the Republican debates and primary campaigns. And like so many have already mentioned, she'd only do it to raise money and keep her books going out in the "bulk sales" catagory.

that are stupid enough to promote her as a solution to oroblems.

I generally see campaign directors of any party to be reasonably intelligent to manage these organizations, and smarter than most candidates.
